No One Else in Sight

When Chen Qing met Jiang Jingyan, he was, like in the eyes of the outside world, impossibly high above her.

This was because for most of his life, Mr. Jiang had maintained a pristine, upright...

Chapter 76 Do you want to accompany me?

Chapter 76 Do you want to accompany me?

Chen Qing inevitably had a nightmare.

Her eyes widened and she gasped violently.

The six months in Qingyoufu Garden were like a brand that eroded the bones and pierced the flesh.

From time to time, it stirs up devastating waves that destroy the existing stability.

Can't forget.

She turned over and the other side of the bed was empty.

Jiang Jingyan came back late and vaguely heard the door opening, but she was too lazy to open her eyes at that time.

The living room was pitch black, with a ray of light coming through the crack of the study door.

Chen Qing tiptoed over and pushed the door open.

The room was filled with smoke, which suddenly hit her face and made her cough.

The man behind the desk looked up at the sound and put out his cigarette, "Why are you sneaking around like that?"

He stood up and opened the window, which dispersed the smoke a little. "Come here."

Chen Qing obeyed.

Jiang Jingyan put his arm around her and rubbed her neck, which was dripping with sweat. "Is it the heat or the fear?"

"Hot."

"lie."

Chen Qing was speechless. Why was he asking her that?

It is three o'clock in the morning and there are gusts of cool breeze outside the window.

Jiang Jingyan lowered his eyes.

She wore a suspender nightgown, a crescent-white silk dress that reached her ankles. The style was not bold, but perfectly wrapped around her figure.

She was sweating at the moment, and a small area on her chest was wet, revealing her smooth skin, which was white with a hint of pink.

He bought three pairs and put them in the closet, guessing she would choose this one.

Sexy, but not vulgar.

Jiang Jingyan wiped away the beads of sweat on her forehead and covered her narrow-shouldered face with one hand.

"That person in the teahouse will never see you again."

Chen Qing hummed unhappily, with something on his mind, and was unknowingly trapped in front of him.

Jiang Jingyan teased her chin, "Anything else?"

"Aren't you going to sleep?"

"A moment."

She was silent again.

Standing there like a piece of wood.

Jiang Jingyan gathered her long hair and put it to one side. "Do you want to accompany me?"

"Okay." She agreed quickly.

The man smiled, but it seemed not to be smiling.

The sound is unclear.

Chen Qing followed him closely to the table.

Jiang Jingyan didn't let her sit on the sofa next to him, but put his arm around her legs and asked, "Are you cold?"

She shook her head, and the top of her hair brushed against his Adam's apple.

"What time is the performance?"

"Next month, after this, it will be summer vacation."

"I'll bring Director Zhang to show you support when the time comes."

"Director Zhang...isn't today's talk just a courtesy?"

Jiang Jingyan held the mouse in one hand and rubbed her waist with the other. "Director Zhang is a freak. He likes to compete with others. He forces everyone to compete with him. You'll know when you meet him. If I miss you, he'll have plenty of time to bother me."

Chen Qing chuckled, "There are people you can't deal with."

"Yes." He tilted his head.

They looked at each other.

Chen Qing's heart beat suddenly, and he poked his cheek, "Go do your thing."

Jiang Jingyan frowned imperceptibly.

She leaned over and asked, "The corner of your mouth is swollen, is it caused by inflammation?"

"Um."

"Young people are quick-tempered. Why do you get angry at your age?"

Jiang Jingyan's brows furrowed even more tightly, his expression darkening as he spoke each word with pause, "At my age?"

Chen Qing smiled awkwardly, put his arm around his neck, and rubbed his head against his shoulder to please him.

The chair in the study was high, so she sat sideways, her legs swinging around in boredom.

After a while, there was no movement.

Jiang Jingyan rubbed his chin and called softly, "Chen Qing."

She clutched his collar and answered him drowsily, "I'm not asleep."

The man curled his lips.

His palm touched her back and pushed aside her long hair. The roots of her hair on the back of her neck were still wet.

He looked quite frightened.

Jiang Jingyan's lips touched her forehead, and he felt uncomfortable.

Chen Qing had nightmares, and once they started, he couldn't sleep well for months.

The life in the orphan training class is unimaginable for ordinary people.

Thousands of photos were taken of all the girls.

Rich people play lavishly and play hard.

If it is a chick, you need to look at its softness and whether it looks beautiful from a unique angle.

At regular intervals, the training class will measure body circumference.

Girls who meet the requirements and are selected but cannot bring any benefits in the long run are the lowest of the lowest and have a lowly status.

They were often beaten, scolded, starved, and threatened.

Chen Qing was very uncooperative at first. His hands and feet were shackled and he stayed in the dungeon for half a month.

When he met Jiang Jingyan, he was so thin that his entire body was just skin and bones.

When he first came out of Qingyoufuyuan, he immediately sought out a psychologist.

But Chen Qing was very resistant. During that period, the only person he trusted was him.

So he acted as a psychologist's intermediary and provided guidance and counseling for a year and a half, and all indicators were close to normal.

After what happened today, I don’t know how long it will take to recover.

A faint snoring sound came to my ears.

Jiang Jingyan leaned back and let her lie on his chest.

There were several messages piled up on his phone, and he looked through them one by one.

After replying, he carried her back to the bedroom.

The next day at noon, Jiang Jingyan went to see Yan Weilan.

As soon as he stepped into the box, Yan Weilan smiled lovingly, "You're a new official, but I haven't congratulated you yet."

"It's an appointment from above, not a promotion." He took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves. "Director Yan, do you have something important to talk to me about?"

"Have you met Bai Qing these days?"

“I saw it at the seminar.”

"Now that you've met before," Yan Weilan pushed a cup of tea towards him, "you should know why I'm looking for Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Jingyan suddenly laughed, "Mr. Yan, you are too polite. You are my elder, and if you need help, I will naturally help you."

Yan Weilan opened her mouth.

He added, "But in official matters, elders must also follow the rules."

"Which of these does the Yan Group not meet?"

Jiang Jing smiled but said nothing, slowly savoring the fragrance of tea.

Yan Weilan's expression gradually became serious, and his eyes were no longer friendly.

Since she took over the Yan family, she has not encountered any problem that cannot be solved. This jewelry exchange exhibition is an important opportunity for her to lead the Yan family to officially gain a foothold in the city. If she fails to win it, her position in the Chamber of Commerce will be unjustified.

She couldn't swallow the shame of being inferior to others.

After a long while, Jiang Jingyan put down his teacup and said, "For the sake of my senior brother, I will make an exception and remind you."

There was a look of inquiry in Yan Weilan's eyes.

"Yan's recently invested in a project, and the project director has shady hands."

"Impossible!" she said sternly. "Yan's background checks are always rigorous. Besides, there's no official news, and the other directors of Huasheng have all approved it. If you're the only one saying there's a problem, it doesn't count."

Jiang Jingyan sat lazily, his smile not reaching his eyes. "If Director Yan wants official news, I can certainly grant it."

Yan Weilan gritted her teeth and said nothing.

His face looked extremely unhappy.

"But it's also possible that a rival company is tampering with the project. The Yan family is cautious, so it's inevitable that they'll attract attention. Someone else inserted a small role and ruined your project." Jiang Jingyan looked at his watch. "I have a meeting, so I won't eat. Goodbye."

He stood tall and straight, without turning his head.

Yan Weilan was so angry that she threw the dishes on the table to the ground, and they broke into pieces with a crackling sound.

Mrs. Tao's nephew got into trouble because she was the one who deliberately fanned the flames behind the scenes.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jingyan saw through the plan so quickly and used the same trick to defeat Yan.

What a great Mr. Jiang.
